Emma Spick , BACP

Emma Spick is a qualified counsellor based in the United Kingdom, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. She gained a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling in 2022 and brings four years of experience working with people from many different backgrounds.

Her practice is grounded in a person-centred approach, which recognises that each person is the expert on their own life and that understanding and change often arise when someone is given space, empathy and support. Emma also draws on other evidence-based techniques where appropriate, tailoring her work to the needs and preferences of each client. This flexible, integrative stance enables her to respond to a wide range of presenting concerns.

Emma has supported clients with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and bereavement, relationship difficulties, low confidence and self-esteem, and mood-related concerns. She also works with issues related to ageing and geriatric challenges, guilt and shame, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and women’s issues. Her aim is to offer a warm, welcoming, supportive and non-judgmental space that helps people reconnect with their own voice and find practical, meaningful ways forward.

Emma welcomes adults who are ready to explore change and build greater fulfilment and connection in their lives, and she collaborates with each client to shape therapy around their goals and circumstances.

Person-Centred Care and Flexible Online Support

Emma mainly practices from a person-centred perspective, which focuses on listening, empathy and providing space for clients to explore their own thoughts and feelings. This approach helps people who are coping with anxiety, low confidence, relationship difficulties and life transitions by encouraging self-understanding and personal insight.

Alongside person-centred work, Emma uses other evidence-based techniques tailored to the presenting issue and the client’s preferences. These additional methods can be introduced as needed to address trauma-related symptoms, grief and mood concerns, offering practical ways to manage difficult emotions while maintaining a compassionate, client-led focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Emma works collaboratively with each client to identify what feels most helpful. Together they review goals, try different ways of working when appropriate, and adjust the plan so therapy fits the client’s needs and pace.

Online therapy with Emma is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, making it easier to access support around work, family and other commitments. These options provide flexibility in timing and format, allowing clients to engage in ways that suit their lifestyle while benefiting from the guidance of a licensed professional.
